Compliant mechanisms with flexure hinges represent a defining element of many precision devices in various fields of science and technology. Due to their importance, the ability of
modeling their behavior with high ...

The aim of this Master's Thesis was to develop a naturally controllable BCI that can predict
motion trajectories from the imagination of motor execution. The approach to reach this aim
was to nd a correlation between ...

Brain-Computer-Interfaces (BCIs) provide a novel way of communication by interpreting
different types of brain states. This principle of reading minds makes BCIs a
challenging but at the same time fascinating topic among ...

To obtain spectra of a light emitting substrate during the deposition of Terbium
(Tb) doped thin films by RF magnetron sputtering, an optomechanical
device is developed, constructed and tested.
The device is required ...

In recent years, autonomous driving technologies have become a topic of growing interest
due to the promise of safer and more convenient mode of transportation. An essential
element in every autonomous driving system is ...

This work considers the study of chance constrained Model Predictive Control (MPC)
for reliable spacecraft trajectory tracking and landing.
Objectives of the master thesis: • To identify and study mathematical dynamic ...

In recent years, there is a growing interest in the development of systems capable of performing
tasks with a high level of autonomy without human supervision. This kind of systems are known as
autonomous systems and ...

Model predictive control (MPC) has been, since its introduction in the late 70’s, a
well accepted control technique, especially for industrial processes, which are typically slow and
allow for on-line ...

Resistivity measurements in thin film samples depending on the temperature and on the
lm thickness is always a subject of interest, above all when it comes to new materials.
This work presents the implementation of a ...

In MEMS sensors, such as resonators based on cantilever and doubly-clamped beams, the presence of residual stresses in the thin films disrupt their mechanical properties or eigenfrequencies and, in some cases, can destroy ...

First applications of the electromagnetic suspension principle have been in experimental
physics, and suggestions to use this principle for suspending transportation
vehicles for high-speed trains go back to 1937. There ...
